Cancellation Policy
Cooling Off Period
If you wish to cancel your booking within 14 days of signing your tenancy agreement, you may do so with a full refund, provided you have not yet moved into the property.

If you wish to cancel your tenancy after the cooling-off period, you may do so by finding a suitable replacement tenant. The new tenant must meet all verification requirements and agree to the terms of the tenancy. The replacement tenant must sign a new tenancy agreement, pay any due sums, and be enrolled in full-time education in the area.
Once the replacement tenant has been verified, signed the agreement, and moved in, your tenancy will be canceled, and any pro-rata rent or security deposit will be refunded, minus a £50 administration fee for the tenancy variation.
If a replacement tenant is not found, you and your guarantor will remain liable for the full terms of the contract.
